Free! - Iwatobi Swim Club Episodes 1-6 Streaming
Free! proves that it has the right elements to succeed as both a sports series and a school-life series, but it hasn't put those elements to full use yet.
Berserk: The Golden Age Arc II Blu-Ray
There are reasons to watch this movie: fine individual scenes, fun cameos, interesting alterations. They're exceedingly small charms, though, for a film that squanders so many large ones.
Lupin the Third: The Woman Called Fujiko Mine BD+DVD
It seems an odd thing to say that one of the darkest, grittiest, most libidinous interpretations of Lupin's world is the most feminine, but like Fujiko, the contradiction begets the intrigue.

One of the few times that the series shifts into full-on, mainstream shonen battle mode. This volume has plenty of exciting and awe-inspiring moments, but it lacks any major surprises.

Lovely Complex Sub.DVD
There may be more intelligent, better-written, and more important romances out there, but for sheer joy in the watching, Lovely Complex is king. (Or queen, if you prefer).

Appleseed XIII BD+DVD
The first series version of Masamune Shirow's renowned manga deserves credit for its ambitious use of CG, symbolism, and allusions to Greek mythology, but it wields its symbolism like a blunt weapon and its episodes vary too widely in quality.
